Of course he won't be doing it, but you can bet your bottom dollar that it is in someone's job role to keep a track of opposition groups and forums for tit-bits of information to bring forward in the analysis. This a professional football club, not Royal Oak FC.

Our club have someone looking at forums. They certainly monitor this one.

Whether EMC is fit or not, I'd like to see Wright at LW and Simms upfront.

Tbf, no post of team arriving like there usually is on social media. Unless of course the Minibus taking our 10 players is stuck in traffic.

Explained it above but il do so again

The news was being thrown around whatsapp groups on Saturday night

I thought it's got to be bullshit, so messaged my source for clarification

He confirmed last night hence why I posted on here

Evidently someone (not saying who) blabbed this on Saturday to their mates, it was doing the rounds 24 hours before I posted it on here

Yeah. I guess the difference is though, you always get random, supposed injury reports on SM. They can be taken with a pinch of salt.

You, Saddle, clearly have a definitive source from within, or close to the club and you are usually pretty spot on with your info.

So the difference between the random stuff posted by every Tom, Dick and Harry, and you posting something, is the credence involved.

Your information holds water, so you can see why people would be a little uneasy about key player injury information being leaked out by yourself.

Heard from some bloke called 'Gr3gg$' that it was at ten pin bowling. Someone was passing balloons around and it all got out of hand.

You say that but I have it on good authority that based on what Saddles posted Hull changed their game plan.
A Hull ITK posted it on their forum and one of Lampards lurkers reported it back to him and we have completely changed our team.
No doubt this post will be picked up on in their camp and a new gameplan hatched, watch this space.

I for one am enjoying this round of ITKCELS vs SADDLESIMPS.

We will soon know if this was a COINTEL OP by Doug "Smersh" King or if Saddles source has survived the Gulag.

The onus is not on saddle brains. If you want to keep a secret, don't tell anyone. Saddlebrains' source (Deep Throat for the older among you?) is the one culpable, he's the one letting it out. If people are unhappy it's the source that is the problem. In this context Saddle is a journalist.

Makes sense (Paterson) if we're gonna try and control the game and hope to have most of the ball.
